a small riot might be the result. This was
when Richard Caffery took occasion to de-
nounce in most heated terms Irishmen who
had sold their countrymen at the last cleo
tion.
PATRICK FORD DENOUNCED.
He singled out Patrick Ford for special
denunciation, and became so bitter as TO pro
woke protests from many in the audience.
Several of those who protested were quickly
put out, and a company of the Sixty-ninth
regiment arose and left the place. The con-
fusion lasted several minutes, and while two
men were being elected by citizens and po-
Ice matters assumed serious aspect.
Another cause of dissension was Or. Nc
Glynn The chairman, in introducing the
doctor, said he was not responsible for the
doctors theological opinions, and said he
would introduce him not as clergyman,
but as an Irishman.
MGLYNN's SPEECH.

the course of his remarks he said:

The doctor declared the righteousness of
the doctrine of land reform, and called up
on Irishmen 10 assert their natural right TO

further besought them to pay no
attention to the cause in matters of politics
and to inform the Roman authorities that
they had no business with any such matters.
The manner in which DIR. McGlynn referred
to the Pope and Archbishop Carrigan caused
marked dissatisfaction, but cheers gener-
ally drowned the bisses, and at the close he
was heartily appauded.
Most of the other speakers also devoted
more attention to the land theory than they
did TO Allen, Larkin, O'Brien and Barrett,
the men whose martyrdom was being cele-
brated

| At this point while the three thousand
listeners were in tumult of enthusiasm
Hon. John Z. Fitzerald was introduced as
the orator of the evening. He said the
spirit of the audience and the numbers
present on such an occasion was proof that

glory of Ireland was not so much in her
past as in the not distant future.
| In the nationalism of Ireland is the
hope of their race, and as a result of recent
events, the demand for separation from En-
gland was stronger to-day than ever. To
dav the cry of the sons of Ireland, scattered
20 600 600 strong over the world, was the cry
of that brave old rebel, John Mitchell "We
have not made peace with England, and we
never shall"
